This car's roarin' baby!! It has flair and spice like older pug sedans like the 405 STI LM i used to have and the 505 my grandpa used to have b4 he stopped driving.
@JohnDark93 I'm not understanding you. Journalist generally have integrity and should state thing honestly. I'm asking if he truely means the 508 is the most beautiful ever as that is what he stated. If this was just some random guys channel I'd care less but Carguide does have some responsibility to be honest
Too bad it’s only FWD. With an interior and an exterior like that, if sold with AWD in the USA, it would probably do very well. That’s a very very advanced looking cockpit.
What happened to your hand sir ? By the way car looks absolutely stunning outside . Rear end look bit like Lancer Evo . Interioris overdone not looking elegant.
just purchased gt model only complaint is the ambient lighting advert says doors,cup holders & center console.first drive at night no center console lights does anyone know if this can be added as an extra
previous gen insignia is what I was referring to, which we saw rebadged here. New 508 and new Insignia ride on a new PSA platform. So yes it's the same platform, but it's not an Insignia, the Insignia is a 508
Best looking car ever and better quality than a E class........ is this video sponsored?! The quality, design and usability is nowhere near a Mercedes!
Could not help but notice the way some people make sweeping generalisations, not just about this car, but about the manufacturer, without ever having driven it. I did not realise, for instance, that it is a fact that Peugeot still can't build a decent car, according to Andrei M, implying that they never have. And they have probably never won a rally either, or a rally championship, or Le Mans, or Dakar, or Pike's Peak, or any Car of the Year awards either. Shame really.
This might be a Peugeot or opel or commodore worthy of my attention....psa bought opel, which was owned by GM who owned Holden who bought the current commodore from opel who was sold by GM to PSA who owns Peugeot.....
I'm French, and never been fond of french cars, I mean, Peugeot has got some reliability issues, and always has been "meh" in terms of design.. But those redesigns.. A coupe, with active suspensions, with 230hp, good fuel economy, cheaper than the competition while providing the same stats and above average options for the price, clearly my next car.
However good this car may be (I’m withholding judgement on that) Peugeot’s cliff like depreciation and a reputation for poor reliability is something they’ll will have their work cut out to beat.
From your statement you seem to be making my point. They’ve got their work cut out for them to beat the reputation they suffered from bad experiences by “narrow minded” persons like me. I’ve liked Peugeot’s (504’s, 404’s, 205gti’s) but probably am unlikely to buy one.
At least until the 3008 pops up. Here peugeots aint exactly affordable as it used to back then in indonesia (my cousin had a 206 when i was a kid when the price aint exactly breaking the wallet, my grandpa had a 505 and i had a 405) now the highly acclaimed 3008 cost u at least $54k (1.6T auto) brand new.
Don't mind me I'm just an American wishing this car was sold here.
The PSA group is planning an American comeback,like Alfaromeo did a few years back.

Nice car with more character/style than 3 series or A4
with the quality of a yugo
@@UnitedKingdomGovernment what do you want to say?Yugo is a great car.
@@UnitedKingdomGovernment that is not true sir, check it out, and then say it
@@ivanlazarevic78 ah yes i forgot the meme about the Yugo, i'll rephrase my comment : with the quality of a Geely.
@@UnitedKingdomGovernment It's got better quality cabin than the recent BMW 3.
Finally, a Peugeot that actually looks decent.
You're joking right? 206cc, 406 coupe, 5008, 308GTI, 308R HYbrid, RCZ/R......you want more?
I've always thought Peugeot cars look nice. Always attract attention.
I just bought one. A 1 year old GT Line. Brilliant!
Any troubles in the winter? Since the windows have to roll down like 5 cm to be able to enter the car?
bad audio inside cabin
Exterior looks sharp. That’s about it.
Ima get me this next year
The back looks good, the front could do with improvement, not liking those diagonal running lights.
If this things sold with camry price tag i'll grab it 4 sure.
Thinking of updating this from my 208
Please do comparison with the Commodore! This Peugeot 508 is amazing!
Lawrence Lo commodore is dead :(
Where did you guys film your review? Roads look really nice.
508 by far 😍😍

"Best looking car ever". Matt seriously? In the history or cars, there has never been a better looking car? Hoping I'm just misunderstanding you

@@swanblake He probably wanted to say the most beautiful of "not-so expensive cars"
Good video. But fix audio recording setup
Sound is bad
Great cars.
Very nice

Way better than boring VW
What happened to your hand sir ? By the way car looks absolutely stunning outside . Rear end look bit like Lancer Evo . Interioris overdone not looking elegant.
Yes pezo for the win
Is it just a bad audio inside the car or it is actually very noise inside when driving?
Rear seats car vents cant be a selling point, my 2005 camry sportivo has them..

Stunning vehicle.. but that cabin audio is incredibly muffled.
Although this is a great car, in the UK at least it's a lot more expensive than class rivals.
Samuel Bomorse You can thanks Brexit for that
Well its pretty much on par with the Superb and cheaper than the passat
Hello CarsGuide,thanks for this nice review,please can you gelp me I need a""Fax"" of Peugoet I need?thank you so much
Did this dude just call this the best looking car ever. What the hell are you smoking in Australia
Maybe a kangaroo punch him in the face before the review...but still is a nice looking car
maybe because for its category, it looks great
Ir id indeed a Nice looping car. Wehnelt you will havé thé chance to ser it real’ thé you will agree
I like the car but for that price I consider something else. Price is like 10k high
Yeah, 55k is getting quite pricey
The wheels look too big for the car
Is this just a rebodied insignia
100% wrong, that disaster was all Opels
@@djnigellove you sure, it's not the first time Peugeot and vaxhaull etc have shared chassis
@@djnigellove just read it uses the insignia platform so looks like I'm 100% right

Better than C class and giving E class a run. But who cares anyway, its still PSA Peugeot Citroen that makes interiors and body trims for Mercedes.
I don't know about mercedes interior quality but this car interior and exterior are far better looking than most, if not all, mercedes
should be priced around $30K for starter model . otherwise they;ll sell zero .
It's gonna be around 25k-27k

Over the last few years they have made some pretty reliable cars since the old 307 1st gens!!! So dont be so narrow minded!!

I’ve bought myself the third 508. Now the new model. Never had any Maine problems.
Very bad sound.😒
Somehow I'm not bowled over by the exterior...not all that good looking in my opinion. The interior is pretty decent though.
If you want something that's actually different from the big 3 germans...go for a tesla model 3 😂😂it looks pretty unique too
First
Gaudy.
Not a good buy for Australia.
stendec Stretcher why not?
WTF? Yeah right, because Peugeot's have never been solid enough for Oz conditions.....they used to win the Redex rally mate.....year after year!
The Kia Stinger looks so much better
Yeah and almost twice the price and far worse quality
if you're 12
Who to? Stevie Wonder?
Graeme Stevie Wonder Armstead😂
No it doesn't! Drives nicely but its quite ugly.
Fact... Peugeot still can't build a decent car...

Fact.....you're an idiot.
It’s a car for special people with tast. This is my third 508. Never had problems.
Ah, and theres the downside. Another gorgeous car wasted on Front wheel drive.
What's with fwd? French car maker built fwd only because it's far more efficient, and the car handle very good
The problem is I can't trust any French car.
